All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if successful.

This record is in very good+ condition. It has light spindle marks visible on the labels but no pen marks, scuffs or fading. There is mild wear to the centre holes but nothing extreme and they are not loose or overly worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in good shape with no really major problems.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything deep or any serious scratches but there is light surface lines, minor sleeve 'scuffing' and general signs of use visible in normal light. These are not at all deep and are faint but are a clear sign of use and age. These along with more incredibly light wispy lines are clearly visible under very bright light but are again nothing sinister or deep. So overall a used vintage record which has nothing serious or deep showing but does have signs of use in the form of very light surface lines.

I play tested the record and it plays well. It lays flat and there is little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. The sound produced is a solid VG+(if not higher) throughout with no major levels of interference and no serious issues such as skips, sticks or clicks. Any audio of volume on the record has no surface noise audible but there is however an occasional light amount of surface noise in the quieter or near silent parts. This is all fairly minor however and didnt detract from a thoroughly enjoyable play test which passed by with no serious issues and audio of good quality(but not perfect) throughout.

The sleeve is in very good condition. It has some rubbing and wear to the edges and corners(pics) but the text along the spine is still all legible. There are pen marks anywhere but there is a sticker removal mark on the front in the top left corner, a small 1cm tear to the rear left(record entry edge) and some scuffs/indentations to the rear top right corner region. There is also some creasing, ring marks and general age related grubbiness to both sides. So overall not a perfect sleeve but one that is still solid and has no major structural issues. I have tried to describe the sleeve as honestly as possible but as I say please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It contains its original picture inner which is in very good- condition. It has no tears or pen marks but there is splits to the bottom and left edges, while there is also one developing on the right edge. There is also some discolouring and general grubbiness to both sides. Due its fragile nature I will of course send the record in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure no further wear or damage occurs during transit.

There is no postcard included unfortunately as this has gone missing at some point.

The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to ensure swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
